Parameter Description
Admin Status Shows if the port is enabled or not.
Link Status Indicates if the port has a valid connection to an
external device.
Speed Status Shows the port speed (10M or 100M).
Duplex Status Displays the current duplex mode.
Flow Control
Status
Shows the flow control type in use. Flow control
can eliminate frame loss by "blocking" traffic from
end stations connected directly to the switch.
Back pressure is used for half duplex and IEEE
802.3x for full duplex. Note that flow control
should not be used if a port is connected to hub.
